With increasing consumer expectations, and the consequent push towards greater professionalization, the real estate industry faces the ever-pressing need to learn, unlearn and relearn in order to stay relevant. In today’s competitive market, real estate professionals have to position themselves to stand out from the crowd. They play diverse roles as facilitators, advisors and consultants to the client’s buying and selling process.

It is against this backdrop of professionalism that the new mortgage planning course, Singapore Accredited Mortgage Planner (SAMP™), is mooted in a joint collaboration between the Singapore Accredited Estate Agencies Ltd (SAEA) and SingCapital Pte Ltd. Written with the real estate professional in mind, the course is also suitable for financial planners and property investors alike. This course will equip the course participant with the knowledge and skills to both plan and manage a mortgage. Course participants will also be introduced to creative financing strategies, as well as the effective use of leverage - a critical element that will improve borrowing capabilities and help create greater wealth.
